Re: Lowest Revolving AMEX Interest Rate

"Congrats on that rate! I'm jealous. I'm going to ask them for 7.24% next month :-p
A 15% reduction in my case. Lol"

not possible. 10.24 is the lowest they will currently offer for anyone.

My BCP is 9.74%.  But I've had it for a long time and it's been PC'd a few times.

Re: Lowest Revolving AMEX Interest Rate

I've asked for a rate reduction every year on my BCE and it's been reduced from 19.24 to 16.24 to 13.24%. Approaching my 3rd year so I hope that means I will get it down to 10.24%. I hesitate to carry a balance on this card but figure a lower APR never hurts.

Re: Lowest Revolving AMEX Interest Rate

I just got a Costco TE card and the rate is something like 12.24 + prime? Not the best it comes out to 16% or so but I don't really plan on carrying a balance. Lots of swipes and PIF is what they like from what i've read, and really a rewards card is the worst to balance carry with so I have no issues with it.

Re: Lowest Revolving AMEX Interest Rate

years ago Amex would lower the apr a bit lower than 10.24. (3.99 + prime) is the lowest I've known Amex to offer someone. but it is only recently Amex will bottom out at 10.24. Those that have lower, it is because they have had that rate for quite some time.

Re: Lowest Revolving AMEX Interest Rate

Banks in general have made it so difficult to get lower purchase rates.
I had a 12% rate on my Anf card and a 9% apr in my Cap One before the financial crisis
